Come learn about the history of the period after reconstruction collapsed, when a high level of labor struggle for the 8 hour day led to two flashpoints: the first major May Day (May 1st, 1886), and the Pullman Strike (1894), which led to the creation of Labor Day in the U.S.

We recommend two particular readings to prepare for this event:

The Haymarket Affair and May Day: https://socialistworker.org/2018/05/01/haymarket-and-the-first-may-day
